Safety Tips

Notwithstanding what you see on CSI Miami and other prime time shows, Miami is a
relatively safe city if you use common sense and are always aware of your surroundings.
In general, the areas frequented by visitors are much safer than areas with the
highest levels of crime.

The Miami-Dade Police Department offers the following recommendations:

Vehicle safety

Review map(s) and other visitor information before leaving the rental car area or
elsewhere. If unsure of how to reach a destination, ask for directions prior to
leaving your point of departure, be that a hotel, attraction, restaurant, shopping
mall or place of business.

Do not ask for casual street corner directions.

Do not exit expressways to avoid tolls.

If you are told by a passing motorist that something is wrong with your vehicle
-- or if someone bumps you from behind -- do not stop. Drive to the nearest well
lighted public area and call for assistance (police emergencies -- dial 911).

Always keep doors locked and windows up when driving or parked. Keep valuables in
the trunk or locked glove compartment.

General Safety

Do not leave bags, briefcases, purses or luggage unattended.

Do not ever leave children unattended anywhere.

Be aware of your surroundings.

Carry travelers checks in place of cash.

Keep hotel and balcony room doors locked.

All members of your party should carry information with the name, address and telephone
number of your hotel.

Carry purses and waist packs across the front of your body. Be sure they are closed
securely.
